From single pieces to full crew runs, Capitola gets printed in full color gear with honest pricing and a 5 to 7 day door-to-door timeline.
Capitola crews order printed in full color gear from us because the numbers are public and the process is simple: free design help, a written proof within 24 hours, and delivery to any Capitola address in 5 to 7 business days.
Capitola is home to about 9,600 people across 1.6 square miles, and every one of those addresses is inside our standard 5 to 7 day delivery window. The same run covers the neighboring communities too: Pleasure Point, CA (1 mi), Soquel, CA (2 mi), Live Oak, CA (2 mi) all order from the same shop at the same published pricing. Presidio of Monterey, around 26 miles from Capitola, anchors the local military community we print for every week.
The whole process runs remote: rough idea in, free designer-built proof back, written approval, and finished gear delivered to Capitola.
A typical week of dtg and dtf printing orders from this corner of California mixes Capitola crews with neighbors like Pleasure Point, 1 miles over, all running through the same designer, the same proof cycle, and the same tracked delivery.
When the retirement is Friday, rush printing exists for exactly this. Reorders match the first run exactly because we keep your art and specs on file.
The small batch is a first-class order here: 10 piece minimum, no screen fees, full color. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Photo shirts reproduce the actual photograph, and memorial timelines get priority. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
Gradients, photos, and complex art with no per-color charges. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
Prove the design at 10 pieces, then scale the winner into a screen-printed hundred. Youth and adult cuts run side by side in the same pack at the same price structure.
One order, many designs: DTG does not care that each shirt is unique. One point of contact owns your order from first proof to delivery confirmation.
We built this company on a simple standard: print it like the name on it matters. For Capitola customers, that means honest timelines, real proofs, and no excuses on delivery day.
That standard cuts both ways. If your art needs work or your timeline is impossible, we tell you up front and offer the fix, because a bad shirt with our print on it costs us more than the order.
Upload art or add text in the Design Lab, set sizes and quantities, and the full estimate, shipping included, is on screen before you give anyone your email.
Start from the garment and the rest follows. Among Capitola customers, these three blanks carry most of the orders, each designable online on its real photos.
Streetwear proportions and max weight, ready for big full-color prints on both sides. If a design will not print well at the size you want, you hear that before money changes hands.
Garment dyed 6.1oz cotton with a washed, premium feel. Full color DTG on this blank looks like retail product, not a print job. The proof comes first and it is free, so what arrives is exactly what you signed off on.
The reliable choice for photo prints and memorial pieces, with 80 plus colors to match any design. What you approve in writing is what ships. That rule has no exceptions.
Every order includes the design team. They rescue low-resolution logos, invent art from plain descriptions, and keep insignia and period typography accurate when the concept demands it. Twenty-four hours after you send the idea, the proof is in your inbox; as many revisions as it takes come free, and your written sign-off is what starts the presses.
Or open the Design Lab and lay the design out yourself, priced in real time on the exact blank.

Three add-ons exist and all are flat per piece: the back print at the table rate ($3 from 25 pieces, $2 from 50), the oversized front at $3 or $2 depending on quantity, and extended sizes at $6 or $4. Nothing else gets added. The Design Lab applies every rule automatically, and the written quote confirms the total before anything is charged.
Kick it off however suits you: describe the concept in the quote form or drop your art straight into the Design Lab. Polish is not required at this stage.
The proof arrives inside a day, drawn at print size on your chosen garment and color. Change anything, as often as needed, at no cost.
The press does not move without your written yes. It is the single checkpoint that makes the no-returns policy fair.
Five to seven business days covers printing and delivery. Tight timeline? Rush gets a truthful quote, not a hopeful one.
Art, thread colors, and size history stay archived, so the next season run starts with one email.
The timeline to Capitola addresses is fixed and published: 5 to 7 business days door to door, production included. Shipping rates are flat, visible in the table, and free from 100 pieces.
Orders ship boxed and counted against your size roster, with tracking sent the day they leave. If anything arrives short or damaged, photograph it and send it over, and we correct it at our cost.
Included with every order: a designer turns whatever you send into print-ready art, proofs it within 24 hours, and revises free until approved.
Absolutely. Bulk is where pack pricing shines, and big mixed-size runs ship counted against your roster with a single person accountable for the date.
Simple math: 2XL and up cost $6 more per piece on small orders and $4 more per piece from 25 pieces. No other size fees exist, and the Design Lab totals it live.
Due to custom orders, all work is finalized and no returns are accepted. Double check sizing and artwork before submitting your order. Every order gets a free proof first, and nothing prints until you approve it in writing.
Order ten, order fifty, order five hundred: 10 pieces is our floor, and for your Capitola crew, bigger packs simply pull the per-piece price down.
Send whatever exists. Vectors print perfectly, high resolution PNGs print clean, and anything below that gets redrawn free by the design team before it goes near a press.
